I don't know how I feel about virginity as a pre-requisite for a university scholarship. As well intentioned as it may be, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

This has negative connotations: that African women are more premiscious than other women, which is certainly not true. I certainly do not see this as being an effective tool to fight "HIV" or a STD (the expressed purpose of the scholarship). Remaining a virgin for as long as possible does not automatically mean that a woman will make healthy choices once they do decide to remain sexually active.
